Pietro Italian Restaurant

A group of us were craving Italian cuisine, so we decided to visit Pietro at Jalan Kelulut. Pietro means Peter in Italian. Needless to say, it was opened by Chef Peter Neo who is known for his authentic Italian cuisine. A cab from Yio Chu Kang MRT to Jalan Kelulut takes about 10 minutes.

Once we arrived, we were greeted by the great hospitality of the servers and Chef Peter himself. The place smelled like olive oil and pizza while the ambience was cosy. Each table was served with freshly baked bread with a unique garlic dip. We ordered melon and parma ham for starters, seafood linguine, vongole, pork belly and carbonara for the mains, followed by a funghi pizza and delightful desserts such as the molten chocolate cake, orange panna cotta and tiramisu.

The pictures speak for themselves. We enjoyed the food, particularly the desserts, which was surprising. Of special mention, the orange panna cotta was refreshing to the palate. A small bite leaves me craving for more! Pietro is worth a visit if you are looking our for an 'ulu' dining place to catch up with friends and family, though it may be on the pricier side.
